Just buy the shares. You'll do much better and won't have to stand in line.

Hey Wayne, tell me how you like it... I won't buy until I hear how you like it...

Not to mention the fact that it appears to be seriously flawed. On the today show the host could not even accept a simple incoming call with a team of Apple reps at her side. Nice product if your 16 and want to store all of your Brittney Spears videos on your phone. |

Maybe I'm just a real oddball (could mother have been right? ;) ) but I've bought my last 2 cell phones over the internet, and my wifes last 2 also.
|
I bought out the entire stock of a company that quit making cell phones, +- 3400 of them, and sold them all over the net in about two months. No warranty or support, except I did warranty against DOA and kept some to exchange anyone who had a real problem after some time even though I said I wouldn't. The funny thing is that amounted to five.

As Scott R stated above, they really need to get the tie in to MS Exchange working for it to get any kind of wide adoption with businesses. Its supposedly coming in the third quarter.
Its expensive. If its performance is good, and the supporting services are done well, then who knows? Perhaps it will make inroads with the business crowd. But thats a pretty big chunk of change for a device, and once the hype dies down, it will have to stand on its technical merits. |
My understanding is that ATT agreed to "no branding" and they are the only carrier that would go along with this agreement, consequently they got the service contract by default. That doesn't sound like a happy family to me.
I'm confident Apple will continue to do well, they will quickly bring out new models and have the ability to correct flaws on the run, stock will continue to go up. Not sure I'd buy now, may wait for a split. Can't personally see paying $600 for a smartphone but I guess a lot of folks have the cash. Going to be interesting to watch. |
If you were Apple would you want AT&T staff or your own staff helping out the customers?
|
A couple of weeks ago AT&T said that the iPhone wasn't going to be available in *all* of their stores. There is a locator on their web site where you put in your zip code and it will show all the stores in your area that are selling the phone. It wasn't the case of Apple screwing AT&T.

Seriously, that's pretty raw on apples part. The At&T store that I went by had 2 security guards and just a few campers. they seemed to be set-up for sales. .. I don't know if they recvd any phones or not. |
IMAP is not a robust enough protocol for business users. Just sending and receiving mail is not sufficient.
The iphone would need to support the following to be used in my organization: -Ability to accept policys, so that passwords policys can be enforced on the device. -Ability to have mail pushed to the device from the server side. -Ability to remotely wipe the device if lost or stolen (without calling AT&T). |

Yahoo Finance had a poll yesterday asking if you would buy an iPhone. As of approx 21,000 votes when I checked... 87% said no. |
Have any of you guys read the news today?
There have been some real gems posted here that will be nice to revisit in the days, weeks, months and years ahead. Best, Kurt |
I don't think Jobs put money in the Segway...he just was a proponent. There is a difference...
